Perhaps it was just:
"Google Play game services aims to integrate gaming across Android, iOS and the web, available today"
Ahead of the announcement.

In Gmail I can build several lists of tasks, and name these as I want to.
I can easily add tasks to each list, and simply click them to mark them as "completed".
The GREAT thing is, that the exact same lists are available directly on my Hero, AND with the exact same features as in the web-version
But, unfortunately, there is no option in Gmail, to share any of these task-lists with somebody else.
If that was possible, the task-lists in Gmail would become a fabulous tool. Just imagine that you could share and "realtime-sync" a shoppinglist with your wife. And other tasklists with collegues etc.?
2 Android units could go shopping in separate warehouses, and NOT come home with "2 of a kind".
Ideas anyone? Or is there an Android developer out there, who can see the potential in this idea?
How do you access your Gmail Tasks on your hero? What app are you using?
I connect through Gmail in my browser:
http://mail.google.com/tasks/android
It keeps logged in to my regular Google account, and gives me direct acces the various lists, I made here.
couldn't make soemone a app ? that also can be used as a widget it would be very nice. i looked for a long time but couldn't find it there where apps that said it would sync with gmail but it was synced with calander and not tasks.

Well, in my case, the sync between tasks work perfectly.
What I need is a way to share a task-list in the same way as I can share a calendar...
Thanks for the tip, but I have to agree with commodoor. The sync works ok as long as you are connected to the internet, once you disconnect you are left in the cold. An app that will allow you to work on your tasks off-line and sync only whenever you want would be useful. Sharing will be also a plus!
Right now i'm using google calendar also for my tasks, only that i can sync it with my phone and viceversa

It's an app in the market, can sync with gmail and there is a widget available, although it is rather large.

Yhea but it is only for pro users only, and 25 dollar per year is to much for syncing my tasks only.
if it was 3 dollar i would buy it but noy 25 per year

I tried that. It's no good!
Much too complicated to set-up properly, and sharing a list is a PITA!

Try gTask. Plain simple, works like a charm.

Yeah - that looks nice.
But that is not, what I'm looking for. The native Google Tasks already does this.
The problem is, that Google Tasks can't be shared, like the calendar does.
yes you can share task lists

I've got my g-Tablet set up just about the way I want it. I like the stock ROM. I have Market working.
My problem is that I don't have any use for the stock Calendar or Contacts apps. I'd like to get the proper Google ones installed without messing up anything else. Some of the replacement ROMs do a good job of this (Google apps run and connect and sync properly to my Google account), so I know it must be possible.
I did try the cyanogenmod update file, but doing this caused several problems and I had to restore from a backup. These problems included causing Market to crash any time it was run as well as Contact and Calendar apps that wouldn't connect or sync to my Google account.
Is there anyone who can walk me through the process of adding a single Google app such as Calendar or Contacts and get it up and connected to my Google account?

I'd be interested in figuring out what this means.
I want the real Google calendar as well.

I finally figured out that "Tom" possibly means "ROM."
So, can anyone point those of us who are interested in adding just Google's Calendar or Contacts apps, rather than a replacement ROM or all-in-one "Google Apps" add-on, in the right direction?
If one was to use the Samsung Note it seems that Google Dashboard would have a copy of all contacts,locations visited,locations searched,Youtube videos watched etc.. Is there a way to prevent all that from happening and from any record being left online with Google's Google Dashboard? This is pretty much the same thing almost as that Carrier IQ.
Bump.. Anyone
I also would like to know that. ..

I am not really sure if I understood your question completely ... but I try
Did you try to disable syncing in the settings? (privacy, accounts)
If you do not want your calendar to sync, disable the use of Google calendar, or use an app that doesn't try to sync with your Google account in the first place.
In my country I also saw the possibility to uncheck tracking on the Google page, again under "settings". Google.com has this too. I think Google will remember this in a cookie, therefore if you delete cookies regularly there's no point adapting the settings ...
HTH
Is there a way to have the Google calendar as a live tile? Would be convenient.

Mine comes through my calendar I had to make sure that it was going to my device from the m.google.com/sync that shows you devices setup for sync. And make sure in your phone's calendar you select your google account. I know you may have tried just suggestion.

You can, however, not connect to EAS Services now already. If you add a new google account in windows phone it will use imap.

No, you can still connect EAS. I have it connected on Lumia 920 and 2 days on reinstalled HTC Titan.
Select Exchange account and add your Gmail account and password, server name is m.google.com, instructions are from old WM but still it works on WP 7 and 8

That was not the question. The question is how can I make the Google calendar as a Live Tile?
You have the regular Calendar tile. If you want more Information you will have to rely on third Party Apps like WeekView 7 that do allow for customized Calendar Live Tiles displaying a lot of Information in different ways.
Apps simply will not download. Stuck in "downloading".
Need rebooting more than once per day. Cleaning cache does not work.
I am on Official 3.1.218 ST and latest Play Store Version 8.8.12-all [0].
Very annoying and I am dealing with this for some months now.
No one else has this problem? Strange.
Just install Play store from Chinese build in the rom app store. It should start to work normally. When you see pending or downloading status just turn off the screen and put the phone aside. Usually after couple of minutes apps will download/update. I know it's strange but it should fix by its own.
On 3.5 rom I do not faced this issue either once, where on 2.15 and 3.1 I had the same thing as you after fresh install of the rom. I fixed it as described above.
